BUTCHER SHOP ‘MICHALAS’
 
The local cold cut of Corfu, known as 'noumboulo fumicado' (from the Venetian nombolo), could not be missing from the Easter table. The 'Michalas' butcher shop has been producing traditional Corfu noumboulo since 1981. Using the purest raw materials and fresh meat, Mr. Michalas emphasises the traditional way of curing, as well as the traditional tying technique. In his shop in Doukades you will also find tobacco salami, tobacco sausage and smoked pancetta, all smoked in a traditional wood-fired oven, as well as a wide variety of local meats of excellent quality.

THE GOVERNOR
 
A "Governor" that has already left its mark on the history of olive oil on Corfu cannot fail to make an impression either as a gift or as an extra touch on your meals. With the image of the first Governor of Greece Ioannis Capodistrias on the bottle, the brand name and the extra virgin olive oil with fresh aroma and taste, one would think it would be worth its weight in... gold!

Something sweet to complete your meal!
 
Every Easter meal should end with a variety of desserts. As every year, the experienced pastry chefs of Corfu elevate the traditional sweets that acquire an even more delicate taste. The wonderful filled or classic 'tsourekia', the Easter cookies made from fresh Corfu butter, the traditional 'fogatsa' and chocolate eggs are just some of the proposals of the Corfu pastry shops.
 

'VOULISMAS' PASTRY SHOP
 
Since 1936, the sweets of the Voulismas family pastry shop in the old town offer joy and moments of pleasure throughout the year.
